Can't log in. Today I've been getting the server maintenance message. I've been playing since Tuesday and I've gotten the daily bonus only once which makes it 1/3.

You don't have to be connected to play, my internet was down the first day I got the game and it didn't stop me doing anything

Yep, just got the TOU on Xbox One (EU)

I live in the North East US and own a Japanese copy for PS4.

I got the game on release date 9/2 and the first day I was having issues with getting disconnected from the servers. Since then the issues have gone away and I just get a maintainance message every time I try to log in.

Update: Konami says the Xbox One servers are FINALLY up and running for the first time since the game launched.

Kept us waiting, huh?

I loaded my Xbox One Ground Zeroes save before posting this just in case the severs exploded again by someone else logging on at the same time as me.

I was able to connect twice, once on launch day to download my uploaded GZ save file (I uploaded it the day before to avoid potential expected launch day server hiccups) and a second time on the second or third day (forget which) to get the 15 free MB Coins. After that point I haven't been able to reconnect so far, still says server is undergoing maintenance.

I'm on PS4 and in Ohio (if state/region matters).

Only the PS4 server is down, huh? Lead (sales) platform?

I've gotten on a few times on PS4, very sporadically. I don't think I was able to get the daily reward yesterday even though I played for ~6 hours (tried connecting every hour or so), which isn't great, but whatever.

I was able to download my GZ save day 1 which was nice.

1. Sporadically. Not since 9/2.
2. PS4
3. Server under maintenance
4. Southern U.S.
5. Not that I could tell when I was connected

Server is still undergoing maintenance? It was down before I went to bed 10 hours ago too.
Click to expand...

It just means servers shit the bed again under load and they have just some message popping up to explain why you can't connect. I have gotten connected once, on PC, and disconnected manually instantly so I would get my short loading times back.

I have a feeling that Konami went cheap on servers for MGS5, because their priorities are mobile games now ... =/

1. Can you get into Online Mode in MGSV The Phantom Pain?
During release day, Yes, sometimes when I try to connect over and over.
But after that, its been on maintenance, so No. Not sure of right now, haven't played yet.

2. Which platform are you on? (PS4, XONE,PC)
PS4

3 What error are you getting (if any)?
It just says its under going maintenance.

4. What region are you playing in?
JPN

5. If you can connect, does Online Mode make the iDroid menu slow?
When I'm able to connect, Yes, it seriously makes navigation slow.
I some times feel like its going to lock up or something.

[Edited]
I was able to connect right now with one try. And the idroid navigation slowdowns are much better. Not as responsive as playing offline but its quick enough to the point that I'm ok with it.

[Edited 2]
Well I got disconnected a few minutes ago. At least I was able to get my daily bonus and play for an hour without DC'ing ...

It's definitely an improvement to the Xbox Servers being completely off like they were for the first three days of launch... But yeah...

5. Yes iDroid is infuriatingly slow when I am online. It's a much better experience to play offline but then you miss out on daily log in bonuses :(

I don't really have too many issues, I'm online mostly. Except when they go down for maintenance. I've not tried the FOB MP yet though. Too busy with story.

EU/PS4.

I was just online to take a few snaps for the OT and I signed into the servers just fine.
